Collaboration is in our DNA -- from the way International Design Source works to the services and products we offer. In that spirit, we are pleased to announce two, first of their kind collaboration showrooms opening March 1 in Sarasota.
Rock House Designer Brands by IDS
Combining Hickory Chair with the entire brand family, the Rock House Designer Brands by International Design Source (RH) showroom opens to the trade on March 1, 2023.
Showcasing the entire product range of Century, Hancock & Moore, Hickory Chair, Highland House, Jessica Charles, Maitland, Smith, and Pearson, this collaboration marks the first of its kind showroom in the US. The newly acquired and remodeled 12,000 square foot showroom houses a broad selection of the entire high-end product range from furniture and casegoods to lighting and upholstery in distinct brand areas.

Grand Opening Day of Celebration
March 23, 2023
Showroom Celebration from 5-7 pm
Join IDS and Alex Shuford for the Grand Opening Showroom Celebration. Tour the 12,000 square feet space showcasing the entire Rock House family of brands including Century, Hickory Chair, Highland House, Hancock & Moore, Jessica Charles, Maitland Smith, and Pearson.
Deconstructing A Chair CEU from 3:30-5pm
Join Alex Shuford, President of Century Furniture, for Deconstruction of a Chair, a visual and verbal CEU presentation that has become a long and impactful tradition for Century.
This “peel back” will demonstrate how every component works together to create comfort, beauty, and quality.
Using a box cutter, he will dissect a chair, layer by layer, to discuss the construction materials, why they are used, and how they compare to competitors materials and construction techniques in fine upholstery.
Vanguard Studio
The new Vanguard Studio showroom presents the namesake line in a renovated 4,000 sq. ft. showroom (formerly Hickory Chair within IDS Fabric).
Opening March 1, 2023, the studio creates a show space which features the wide range of the product line and all the convenience of the Design Lab, including Vanguard 3D Visualizer and Customizable Program product buildout programs.
